Maternal Lineage Ancestry DNA Testing Kit | Discover Your Mitochondrial mtDNA Haplogroup | Results in 6-7 Weeks | Home DNA Sample Collection Kit | A Complete Kit with No Extra Fees

We all inherit our mitochondrial DNA from our mothers, but it is only females that can pass it on to their children. All biological relatives in a family who have a common maternal ancestor will also have genetic sequences in their mitochondrial DNA profile which they all share. These shared genetic sequences mean that we can look at these individuals as belonging to the same mtDNA family. But genetic sequences in mtDNA will vary between different families. These differences are extremely important because they act as distinct markers of your maternal ancestry, enabling us to match your and your family’s mtDNA with that of your haplogroup or ancient maternal clan. Every person in the world today can be assigned to their own family haplogroup through DNA testing thanks to these genetic sequences that are inherited from our ancestors, giving them unique insights into their own direct maternal heritage. Haplogroups are groups of individuals sharing DNA variations that descend from a common ancestor. They are marked from A-Z for convenience purposes. Your test results will confirm your very own haplogroup. For example, your results might show that you belong to Haplogroup T, which refers to the Tara people who came from the Near East and lived in Northern Italy around 17,000 years ago. Or perhaps they might show you belong to haplogroup V, in which case, your maternal ancestors are believed to have originated around the Western Mediterranean region, approximately 13,600 years before the present time, possibly in Iberia. The test requires only a simple mouth swab and the results you receive provide a meaningful conversation piece for you and your loved ones. The sample collection kit contains 4 x sterile mouth swabs, welcome letter, step-by-step sample collection instructions, client registration form, consent form and return envelope.
